Schubert: Symphonies Nos. 5 & 8

Emelyanychev, Maxim;
Scottish Chamber Orchestra

CKD 748

Following a critically acclaimed recording of ‘The Great’, the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and its conductor Maxim Emelyanychev continue their survey of Schubert’s orchestral music with Symphonies Nos. 5 & 8. If the slender No. 5 looks back at Mozart – it was composed in 1816, the year Schubert discovered the composer’s chamber music – the ‘Unfinished’ No. 8 is a daring foray that distances itself from Schubert’s earlier symphonies. The programme closes with the Rondo in A major, D. 438, featuring the SCO’s Leader, Stephanie Gonley, as soloist. Widely known for their spontaneity and sensitivity, the SCO and Emelyanychev are a match made in heaven when it comes to Schubert.

Works:

•Schubert: Rondo for violin and strings in A major, D438Schubert: Symphony No. 5 in B flat major, D485
• Schubert: Symphony No. 8 in B minor, D759 'Unfinished'
